us essential to educate the Imbecile as It
Is to educate the deaf-mute or the blind.
To allow him to grow np without education
or habit training Is simply to allow him
degenerate Into n repulsive helpless crea
nimble to speak, to walk, to feed himself
or to perform any conscious action. We
designate the former class as Imbeciles, the

Interesting Data.
In America the first attempt to educate
feeble minded children was made In the
1818 when several children were ad
few such children were admit
several of the schools for the deaf-mute and
the blind.
In May, 1848, the Massachusetts legisla
ture appropriated $2,500 for an experimental
sehool providing that ten pauper Idiots
should be selected from different parts of
the state for Instruction. At the end of
three years, so successful had been this
school that the legislature doubled the ap-
—• • orated the experl-
ennanent one.
... __ter the Massa
chusetts school had been established. New
York appropriated funds for an expert-
not. The Jalle, the poor houses and th»
insane asylums accommodate many of these
people, occupying quarters not suited to
them, and crowding out those for whom
these places were orlglually Intended.

In 1851, three years after
_ was erected. , . ,
lu 1853, the Pennsylvania Training School
fur Miotic and Feeble-Minded Children was
fbcoriKirnted. Ohio In 1857, Connecticut In
In'kS. ami Kentucky In 1M0, were the next
states to tike np this work, though sev
eral private schools had been established be
fore this time. It should be noted that
the first schools were begun aa experi
ments, but that In no Instance hat one
been abandoned, and In a few years each
one of them wna reorganised, becoming a
permanent school. Wherever these schools
are situated they are prosperous and doing
a work wbllh la appreciated by all familiar
with them. While In the beginning all
these schools were purely educational, they
have developed gradually aa knowledge of
their pupils' capabilities and limitations
has been gained until at present no state
school for the feeble-minded would be sat
isfied with this feature alone. The modern
Institutions accomplish for more for their
pupils than the most sanguine believers In
the earlier schools even hoped for.
Thousands in Gtorgia.

were In Georgia 5,000 Imbecile Individuals.

mckward and slow to learn, or vicious and
without natural moral feelings., t
In the United States, we find that there
Is one feeble-minded Individual to every 600
of imputation, though the ratio varies In
different localities. A large percentage of
the criminal class of our population, the
tramp, the thief, the prostitute, the drunk
ard. Is feeble-minded, and this Is coming
to be recognised more generally as these
Individuals are studied carefully.
In considering what should be dono for
the feeble-minded, we find that we owe
a duty to the normal Individual aa well.
The latter should be protected from the

the burden of their maintenance ao for aa

Products of Heredity.
Congenitally feeble-minded offspring re
sult from the marriage of the feeble-mind
ed, the habitual drunkard, the epileptic,
the Insane, and the victims of other forma
of disease, and suitable laws might be en
acted which would limit In some degree
such unions.
Much can be done to reduce the birth
rate of the mentally defective. In provid
ing proparly for those now with us. placing
them permanently In an Institution where
they can assume no marriage relations we
prevent at least that part of them from
transmitting their own uufortunate defects.
As mentioned above, the feeble-minded are
very prolific, small famlllee are unusual,
and aa a rule the children of such parents
are of a lower grade of Intelligence. The
feeble-minded should be separated from
normal Individuals, forming a society of
their own, where they can be protected
from the unscrupulous and thoughtless, and
from the consequences *—
sponsible actions, where
oped physically, mentally and morally, and
where they can lead well-regulated and use
ful Urea.
If all these defectives could In their
esrly childhood be placed In proper sur
roundings where they could be controlled,
some would be able to leave the place of
detention able to make a living tor them
selves. while all of the others would he
much better off than they are under present
conditions. Too much stress should not be
laid on the probability of these patients be
ing able to leave the Institution, for In the
great majority of instances this Is not de-
with I
but n ...
nervlslon and direction. Again, when left
to themselves without the restraints of In
stitution life, they are apt after a time to
give np all effort to gain their support by
honest means, and to drift Into the crimi
nal class,
Feeble-Minded Women.
The feeble-minded women especially
need our protection, as In nil feeble-minded
their moral and ethical feelings are rudi
mentary. and their lower Instincts are In
the ascendency. These women are apt to
become prostitutes or to be taken advan
tage of by the unscrupulous and ignorant,
or if they are legally married to become
mothers of large families of mentally de
fective children. For the good of the fee
ble-minded themselves, for that of their
families to whom one such member Is an
expense and care which they are unable to
bear, and as a matter of public economy,
It Is Imperative that something should be
done.to better the condition of these Indi
viduals.
The problem of what to do for them has
been solved satisfactorily by many states,
and this solution should be taken advantage
of by every state In the Union, os only by
such general adoption can the sreatest
amount of good be attained.
The careful study of
for more than half a centui
the best rcaulta are seel
Ing, laundry work and housework. They
could assist In the kltriieus, the dining
rooms, and the dairy; could look after the
poultry yards, attend to the flower gardens,
and could care for those more feeble-minded
than themselves.
The custodial department should be main
tained to care for the Idiots who could be
taught no occupation, and for those de
formed, helpless, crippled and paralysed,
who aeed constant attention and Intelli
gent nursing. With putlence, the majority
of even this class could l»e taught some
thing. though It were only to care for their
persons, dress and feed themselves.
Right Sort of Looation.
The location, of an Institution for the fee
ble-minded should be near a city, so that
the markets bould be taken udvautnge of,
railroad should be close to the grounds for
convenience In receiving and shipping arti
cles bought and sold, while ad abundant
supply of good water Is Indispensable.
The land belonging to the Institution
should comprise several hundred acres, the
lffger the better; ns many Industries should
be conducted.
There should be many comparatively
•mail buildings, rather than one or two
large ones, these buildings being In groups
corresponding to the departments, in tho
smaller buildings fewer pupils would be
thrown together, and they should be pre
sided over by a man and his wife. The
home feature should be developed, and n
kind and Intelligent Interest taken In each
pupil. There would necessarily develop
•otne feeling of rivalry betweeu these su
pervisors, and between tho pupils with
them, each household seeking to he known
as tne best governed and the best be
haved.
A modest beginning could be made—n
few buildings ereeteLL and others added
as they wore required, but the farm and
garden should he large enough to give em
ployment to several hundred men and boys.
Along with the school and home buildings,
others ahotild be erected to be used as
•ps where the different trades would bo
taught. There should also l>e n small hos
pital conveniently located to which every
cane of sickness should be sent.
A large number of inmates is no draw-
back to these Institutions. On the contrary.
It Is nn advantage aa many feeble-minded
Individuals will be required from which to
select the number necessary to do the
work profitably.
Only last year the Kentucky Sclfool for
about 300 were received. That the expense
of nuch a school will decrease Is shown by
the report of the Pennsylvania school,
which once rejulred $300 per capita to main
tain It, uow about $100 Is sufficient.
How McLean Fell.
The report of the superintendent of the
Georgia State Sanitarium for the year 1906
shows that there are la the Institution nine
ty-flve Idiots. This statement Is cslcu-
laed to leave a wrong Impression on those
not familiar with the facta, for, whfb
this number Includes many caaea of th«
lowest grade of feeblc-utiudedneas, it by ul
means includes all the Imbecile Inmates.

Such an Institution properly located and
equipped would be quite an expense to the
state In the l>eglnnlng. and this matter of
expense Is after all the only thing whirb
stands In the way of estatdlshlng such In
stitutions In every state. They have passed
beyond the stage of experiment. Tho ex

The saloon Is the enemy of the home, and
strong drink will sooner or later curse
every homo It enters. It destroys filial
and parental affection. It makes murderers
out of many good husbnuds, beasts out of
dutiful sons, bawds out of pure. Innocent
girls, and maniacs out of uoble, aweet
